Memorial Resolutions.
The attendants of the North Caro
lina Insane Asylum.at a special meet
ing onthe evening of July 8th, 1890.
adopted the following tribute of ra
spect to the memory of their deceased
friend, and former associate, Mr. E.
M. Ferrell.
In his death, his family has lost a
son, brother and husband, we, a
friend worthy of emulation.
He was a pious andChristian young
man, his marked characteristics were
truth and moral courage. He was
always a worker, never complained of
the excessive work assigned him, but
cheerfully performed his duties. He
bore the evils of life without repining
or complaining against the providence
of tied.
His family will mourn, as is natural,
but may their grief be softened by
the rainbow of hope which encircles
the tomb.
We desire to record by formal reso
lutions 1st. That,in the death of our friend
Mr. E. M. Ferrell, a severe affliction
has fallen, not only upon his family,
but upon us also, with whom he la
bored so faithfully.
2nd. That, we tender to his bereav
ed family, this expression of our sym
pathy in this, their day of trial and
sorrow.
3rd. That, we send a copy of these
resolutions to the parents and wife of
the deceased.
4th, That we inscribe a page to his
memory in our record, and send a
copy to the Daily. Evening Visitor
for publication.
Very Respectfully,
J. A. Tucker,

his family, was sent to the work
house.
1 Sol. Young, on a peace warrant, was
put under bond to keep the peace for
six months. This case was caused
from a rupture between the pastor of

Holt, said some hard things, at which
Young called him to account the next
day, coupled with threats which call
ed forth the warrant.
